Gall bladder polyps are growths or lesion resembling growths in the wall of the Gall bladder. Most small Polyps (less than 1 cm) are not cancerous but the most dreaded complication of the Gall bladder Polyp is Adenocarcinoma1. Direct reference of Gall bladder polyp is not available in Ayurveda. The disease can be correlated to Pittashoshaja shola. In this case study, a 25-year-old female diagnosed with Gall bladder Pol-yp was administered Paaneeya Kshara for 28 days. Assessment was done for pain and size of Polyp. Sig-nificant improvement was observed after treatment.
